I fear 99 and 67, but I think you need to shove.

Toss 33, 55, 99, 98 (obv accounting for blocking), 76 into a calculator, and I think you handily have enough equity.

Add a flush draw or two, and I just don't think you're ever folding.

Not fist pumping, but not folding

Can't fold this 100BB effective, V1 could easily have 98, a flush draw or a lower set and V2 could have 55 or 33 here. Sucks if one of them has you beat, 99 is more likely than 67 but that's poker.

Snap shove, cooler city

If V2's AI stack was smaller than V1 - I'd be inclined to call. But it's not.
And I guarantee V1 is not folding.
Nobody calls a raise oop, checks the flop and then repops a turn bet with intentions of folding. He's very strong.
I'm guessing we can put V3's range on a big Ace since he folded.
And at least one of the two Vs on a FD.
Which leaves us with the question: what's the other V got?
My guess is it's at least 2 pair. Since we got two 8 blockers... 98 is more improbable. So I think a set is reasonable as is 76os.
In 4-way action, my experience is that somebody always has the nut straight... call it Hiro's Theorem.
I think a fold is in order. We're probably a 3:1 dog and we're not getting the right price to continue.
